Abstract
Silanols and silanes are key precursors and intermediates for the synthesis of silicon-based materials. While their characterization and quantification using 29Si NMR has received significant attention, it is a technique that is limited by the low natural abundance of 29Si and its low sensitivity. Here, we describe a method using p-H2 to hyperpolarize 29Si. The observed signal enhancements, approaching 3000-fold at 11.7 T, would take many days of measurement for comparable results under Boltzmann conditions. The resulting signals are exploited to monitor the rapid reaction of tris(tert-butoxy)silanol with triflic anhydride in a T1 corrected process that allows for rapid quantification. These results demonstrate a novel route to quantify dynamic processes and intermediates in the synthesis of silicon materials.
